THIS WEEK:
Monday "Memorial Day"
Wednesday, 7:00 p.m. - Midweek Service!
The pastor has just started a study from the Book of Ephesians.
This week we learned Ephesians is a letter of encouragement,
challenge, and we are to "stand firm". The pastor extends a
personal invitation to you to come and expand your knowledge
of the Bible. All of the Lord's children need to be constantly
growing and increasing in their love and devotion of the Bible.
